Got my haul with the new goodies!

Post by xraisonxdetre » Thu Nov 26, 2009 2:27 pm

OMG THE NEW LIP BALMS ARE AMAZING!!! I have NOT STOPPED putting on my Chocolate Orange lip balm since I got it yesterday in the mail. It is just fantastic. I got the Praline one also and it smells DELICIOUS.

Flare is absolutely gorgeous. I have dark skin and it shows up nicely on me and gives a really pretty glow, will def buy a full size.

I also REALLY like the Daily Defense Moisturizer. I put it on top of the super serum and my skin feels really soft and hydrated. Not dry AT ALL, which is what I was worried about. I used to wear the raspberry moisturizer but I found that it just wasn't enough for me for the winter, but this fantastic. I'm going to mix the daily defense with some argan too and see how that goes (I've been mixing argan with raspberry as per some advice on this forum!)

I didn't have a chance to play with meteor/solar/orbit yet, but they look really really pretty in the jar! haha. For anyone who is worried about orbit being too orange or anything, it doesn't look THAT orange in the jar (but like I said, I haven't tried it on yet).

I also got Symphony and it is really pretty. I love that it gives a sheer wash of color, very "just in from the cold." I'm going to swatch Bitten and Symphony next to each other to see the difference, but I *think* Symphony is warmer. Gleaming is GORGEOUS when u put it on top of other shades. I put it on top of Bisou and it looked really nice :) I think it has more gold sparkle then Swank does. For me, Swank added more gloss and darkened the lip shade. Gleaming adds gloss and a nice golden sheen. I didn't try it on too many darker colors so I didn't notice that much lightening, but I am assuming that it would.

I also got a ton of lippies, like 10...LOL :oops: and I keep falling in love with all of them. sigh.

My conversation with myself went a bit like this:

OOOOO I got my new Bitten! Yay! (I lost my old one*tear*) Finally I have my favorite back! Ohh...Bisou I've been wanting to try this one for a while...WOW THIS IS GORGEOUS. Definately my new wear to work color. I like. Lets try Ingenue...dont get your hopes up...you remember how Bamboo turned out on you...light peaches just don't work on you, so don't get your hopes up...OMG IT WORKED IT WORKED IT WORKED!!!! ***dancing around room romantic comedy style*** I can't believe this..this has GOT to be my new everyday casual color! and so forth...with every. single. color.

I also got the microderm cream with this order. I have never really wanted to try it, but I've heard a lot of good things and so I decided to give it a go. I have no words to describe how much I have fallen in love with this. My skin felt SO soft after, and the beads (im exactly sure what these are called, crystals maybe?) are really fine, so it doesn't scratch or hurt, but man do they work! My skin was glowing afterwards. I think this may have become one of my staples!

And now I'm already planning my next order....heheh :shock: 8-)

I actually do not have gold blush. gleaming has so much gold in it that it is almost a yellowish shade. not sure if that helps :)
